Impacting INDIVIDUALS
Influencing systems
Characterised by renewed hope, developed confidence and improved skills, the programmes that we offer give people the chance to grow, expand their horizons, and become agents of change in their own community. We focus on empowering and enhancing the lives of those people most isolated and vulnerable, building their confidence and helping them to learn new skills, so that they may fully live their lives and become a part of their community.
VIP Mentoring
Vision, Identity, Purpose
Our approach to mentoring helps young people to discover a vision for their lives, be confident in their identity and know their purpose in life. Through both one-to-one and group sessions, we give young people the opportunity to take charge of their own lives.
Alternative Education
The LifeLine School
Our independent school allows students with disrupted education to catch up with their peers in less than ten months. We combine traditional academic studies with life skills and one-to-one mentoring in order to give each student the support they need to thrive.
SW!TCH Expeditions
Combining enterprise and education, we bring together small groups of students to run their own business, with an integrated curriculum working towards academic qualifications. We also provide work placements and vocational tasters to prepare students for the world of work.
Little Learners

Programmes for Adults
Create Your Future
Using a unique drama-based approach to learning English, paired with extensive support in developing employment and life skills, we help BAME women in the Barking & Dagenham and Havering areas learn everything they need to find gainful employment and become a part of their local community.
Healthwatch Barking and Dagenham
Part of the national Healthwatch network, Healthwatch Barking and Dagenham acts as a champion for people in their local community who use health and care services. Their role is to listen to what people have to say about their local services, and share this feedback with the providers of services so they can improve and better meet the needs of the community.
Who We Are
LifeLine Projects was founded in 2000 by a group of volunteers in East London who saw a need in their local community. Realising that they could be part of the solution, they began working with isolated and marginalised women. Since then, we’ve grown from a small organisation with just two part-time members of staff, to one of the larger community-based social enterprises in the capital. Over the years, we’ve worked with numerous organisations to deliver many public-sector-funded programmes, and we’ve received several awards recognising the fruits of our programmes and been short-listed for many more.
